Yes Hardy definitely earned some respect and new fans after that fight.

I hope Tito knocks Chuck out. I've never liked Lidell, I've felt that he was shoved down our throats by Dana White.

I am on the opposite end of the opinions on Hardy being injured. Some people have a higher pain threshold, flexibility, call it what you will. My instructors get me in kimuras, americanas, and armbars that deep constantly, it doesn't take much more than a simple shift of direction to alleviate a good amount of the pain. Plus on the armbar attempt Hardy had his arm rotated enough that it wasn't a straight armbar, hence relieving some of the pressure on the elbow joint. Just my .02.

I hope chuck kills Tito...again. I hate Tito....he thinks he is still relevant in the 205 division....guess what Tito....you ain't. You took Machida to a decision...congrats....so did a fatted up BJ Penn. Tito would be lucky to be in the top 10 in the UFC at LHW.

Pain Headquarters, Akron, OH.

I go only on the grappling nights, BJJ/wrestling twice a week. I only go on Muay Thai/striking nights every once in awhile.

Great. I am training at Xtreme Martial arts academy for MMA. Mainly for the condtioning really and the Jiu-jitsu plus taking privates from a member from the Relson Gracie Academy. I learn so much that way. Then I get to use it on people at class lol.

I go for the workout (conditioning) and the BJJ techniques as well. I don't ever plan on competing, I make a living with my brain, I don't plan on getting it punched on purpose

I've thought about competing in a few NAGA tournaments, but never done it.

NAGA, EGO (usually in Indiana or KY), or OGC are all good tourneys man. They're super fun too. Really. Or maybe the EGO one was for me because I won it only giving up 2 points the whole tourney lol.

I am going in April to watch a couple friends compete in OCG. One has a good chance to win the Blue Belt division. The other. Well not so much.

I was going to go but I have a fight that day, took it on short notice, with coaching wrestling havent been able to train as much as I would like, so it's a push to get my stand up respectable and my cardio to an average level. With it being a heavyweight fight, cardio for the other guy probably won't be a big deal as we will both be puking by round 2 lol

I am also very interested in the Ricardo Mayorga vs. long time MMA veteran Din Thomas fight at the upcoming Shine Fights 5/15.
http://mmajunkie.com/news/18532/tickets-for-shine-fights-worlds-collide-mayorga-vs-thomas-in-n-c-on-sale-now.mma

With world class boxers like Mayorga and Toney coming into the game it will be very interesting to see how they do.

Relatively new site. You can watch full episodes on there and a lot of the fights. I watched the Griffin-Bonnar fight on there the other day.

I thought Chuck wasn't fighting Tito anymore? He was on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon last night and said that he couldn't wait to pound Tito again.
